Aembit has announced the appointment of Michael Trites as Senior Vice President of Global Sales, bringing extensive leadership experience to drive growth for its Workload IAM Platform.
Expanding Aembit’s Global Reach
Aembit, a leader in non-human identity and access management (IAM), has welcomed Michael Trites as its new Senior Vice President of Global Sales. With over two decades of experience scaling sales teams in cybersecurity, Trites will focus on expanding Aembit’s adoption worldwide.
Prior to this role, Trites spearheaded sales at Dig Security, a data security posture management provider, where he played a critical role in the company’s expansion strategy. His leadership contributed to Dig Security’s acquisition by Palo Alto Networks.
Driving Innovation in Cybersecurity
David Goldschlag, Co-founder and CEO of Aembit, expressed confidence in Trites, stating, “Michael’s history of driving adoption in emerging cybersecurity markets makes him an invaluable addition to our team. His expertise will be instrumental in helping organizations secure their growing mix of client workloads, AI agents, and service accounts.”
Trites has previously held executive roles at leading cybersecurity companies, including CyCognito, BigID, and Zimperium, where he significantly expanded market reach and revenue streams. He also spent more than a decade at Riverbed Technology, advancing through multiple leadership positions to oversee sales for the Americas East region.
Enhancing Non-Human Identity Management
As businesses increasingly rely on automated systems, securing non-human identities has become a critical aspect of cybersecurity. Aembit’s platform focuses on authenticating client workloads, enforcing access rights, and eliminating static credentials—an approach that significantly reduces the attack surface in modern enterprises.
Trites emphasized the importance of efficiency in security solutions, stating, “Many tools highlight risks but fail to resolve them. Aembit’s policy-based, secretless access ensures organizations can move faster while strengthening security. By removing the need for developers to embed authentication into applications, we empower businesses to build with confidence.”
Shaping the Future of IAM
With Trites at the helm of global sales, Aembit is poised to revolutionize workload identity management. His leadership is expected to accelerate the company’s mission of providing enterprises with a seamless and secure approach to managing non-human identities.
As cybersecurity threats continue to evolve, innovations in identity management will be crucial in protecting digital infrastructure. With strategic leadership and advanced IAM solutions, Aembit is well-positioned to make a lasting impact in the industry.
